Abstract in brief

Telomeres, which are protective caps on the ends of chromosomes, play a crucial role in human health and aging, and their length can be influenced by lifestyle factors.
As telomeres shorten with age, this process can lead to cell aging, disease, or even cancer, and the speed of this shortening can be affected by diet and physical activity.
Making healthier lifestyle choices may slow telomere shortening, potentially delaying age-related diseases and contributing to a longer, healthier lifespan.]
